Hell-o all and here we are, ready to get electro-nasty once again with some heavy basslines, dirty beats and distorted synths. Yeah, it’s mid-week Metalectro blogging time and we’ll be getting rowdy right from the start today with a new single by a name that even though it hasn’t been featured here as many times yet noone can doubt how important they have been for the hard electro scene. Designer Drugs are back and as the title of their new single suggests seem to be completely in control of their electro banger impulses as well. Out on Sex Cult a bit more than a week ago “The Drugs Are In Control” is a wild and full of energy original that proves that these guys can go at it hard. Here it is, so check it out and get out of control!

Last but not least it’s time for today’s pick for the “remix of the day” and what a great remix by one of the most unique, characteristic and original artists the hard electro scene has seen and heard the last few years. Gor FLsh just made avaiable this older remix he did for FetOo‘s “Fugitive” as a free download a few days ago and what a great remix it is as well. Of course, for those who might have missed it, the original is a great track too by all means, still though the Canadian artist managed to further improve it by delivering a remix that has the Gor FLsh very characteristic trademark sound, has kept all those elements that make the original so nice and overall found the perfect balance that makes this a very creative remix which maintains the identity of the original. So a rightful and fully deserving “remix of the day” and this is how we will wrap the first day of the week up, so make sure to check this one out, grab it and of course PLAY IT LOUD!!!

Here comes another freebie and a new original by Krftkds who are back on Metalectro snatching another post as they have always done with their tracks really. Classic hard electro, Krftkds style, and big ups to these guys for sticking to their (and ours) favorite sound and style and not trying to follow any trends but only their own creative vision and musical passion. As for the track itself, bouncy, ravey and hard are the 3 main ingredients and if you like the hard electro sound of the older days that stays clear of any Dubstep and “EDM” influences then this is a track for you.

Time for a freebie and a semi-new original track by Geometry who unfortunatelly seem to be another one of those super talented artists that have decided to call it quits and another of the many great artists that for one reason or the other have either stopped producing or killed the projects we all came to love the last few years. The list is long really and maybe we should try put them all together in a special rememberance post sometime but back to the track at hand for now. Geometry had a free original out which is actually an older track that was never finished until recently. The track is finished and available as a freebie now though and it is a great Electro House track with the great and somewhat trademark Geometry sound. For those fans of the Geometry sound this is definitely a track to check and grab, as for the rest hit play and see why Geometry is one of those artists we are so sad to see slowly fade away and stop producing.

Here comes the “remix of the day” and one that had snatched the title for a while now. Greatness is the 1st word that comes to mind when pressing play on this remix Q.G. did on Dizkodeath‘s “Wizard” and i press the play button way too often on it. The powerful trashy Q.G. bass matched perfectly Dizkodeath‘s groovy disco feel, delivering a combination of styles and a remix that stands out and shines. Q.G. couldn’t have done a better job finding the perfect balance of elements from the original to keep and trademark Q.G. ones to add. The decisions turned out great and the result magic as the Frenchman managed to add his personal touch and feel while maintaining that of the original too. Credit should definitely go to Dizkodeath as well though for the original and great base material given to the remixers to work with. None of this maters as much as the final result though, which is an amazing remix and EP, so check them both out!
